"The VOB side of it doesn't actually work. I tried my own DVDs (and Region 2/1 DVDs) that I've made and they don't play. A3 claims unsupported Codec! I checked with Gspot and it says their bog-standard MPEG2 files. Also what I didn't realise is that when you've got it in music playing mode in your pocket with the LCD off, you can't skip past a track easily without picking it up and looking at it. Also once you play a song, you get the music info screen which looks nice. But once you press 'back' you can't get back to that song info screen! You have to go back to the menu, press music and then navigate back down to the song and then it starts it again from scratch. So not a device you want to put in your car or pocket and just ignore it as it plays. It really needs a skip button on the right-hand edge."
